I was sold a remanufactured turbo. The seller said it was a ball bering GT25. I can't find a gt25 model that is this turbos specs. If anyone could tell me anything about this turbo it would be very helpful. I just want to make sure i got what I paid for.the tag on the turbo says:466234-169226-2

The exhaust housing says:22-86.86M4G

The intake housing says:443611-6 0.80M10

Thats everything that is inscribed on the turbo. I hope theres a garrett expert out there who can help me. thanks

The most accurate way of finding out what you have is contacting a "Garrett Performance Distributor"

FYI, ball bearing turbos have a "R" following the frame size number (ie. GT28R) I can check that PN for you next week if you dont have info already.

Unless some type of modification was done to the center housing, it does not have ball bearings. As for A/R, Trim, and wheel types, I didn't find that info. I could have if i spent enough time, but i was at work : P

Well i was in the process of getting oil lines for this thing and noticed that the oil inlet/outlet are not the same as normal T25's or GT25's. Its a much larger opening than either. I took it to a tuner shop and they said they think its a stock turbo from some car, but they don't know what. Its larger than an s13 T25 because i put a s13 compressor housing on it and it couldn't spin. I was thinking it could possibly be from an RB20 or a pulsar or possibly even a small diesel turbo (I hope not). If anyone has any ideas it would be very helpful. I want to figure out what my turbo is

Also not too happy with seller now
